What You Can Expect in Your Bible Education at Sunset

At Sunset International Bible Institute, our purpose is to teach the "whole counsel of God" (Acts 20:27). We endeavor to expose students to every book in the Bible and to a practical view of ministry within the Body of Christ and to intentional outreach to a lost world. As you study through 40 courses (120 credit hours) on the way to receiving your Bachelor of Biblical Studies Degree, here are some of the things you can expect to be taught:

The Nature and Character of God:From the Old Testament and New Testament, you will be taught about the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. You will be exposed to the love, mercy, grace and justice of God in His dealings with mankind through the ages.

The Life and Teachings of Christ:You will learn about His Deity, His humanity, His powerful message, His sinless life, His death, burial and resurrection and His exaltation to the right hand of God in Heaven.

The Gift and Work of the Holy Spirit:You will be taught what the Bible says about the person, the power and the work of God’s Spirit throughout history and the indwelling Spirit which serves as the “seal of salvation and earnest of inheritance” for every Christian.

The Redemptive Plan and Purpose of God:You will learn about God’s plan to save and forgive sinful humanity through the atoning sacrifice of Christ, as it is revealed in the gospel and received by God’s mercy and grace through saving faith, repentance of sin and baptism into Christ.
